    I had an ectopic
    Hi, update from my last posting, this may be of some use...
    After having 2 weeks of HCG tests every 48hrs, a D&C as they thought it was incomplete miscarraige, and more bloods to confirm. I ended up being admitted as an emergancy ectopic. I had an appointment to discuss the examination of tissue removed from D&C last Wednesday, (up until that day I still had not had any pains, bleeding). Night before my appointment I had tummy cramp and bloating. Next day I was still having cramp and felt faint. Fortunatly I went for my appointment and the DR, scanned me immediately. This hurt and caused bleeding. They found a mass of blood inside. I almost fainted when I got up. They diagnosed a ruptured ectopic. I had op within an hour, right tube removed. Spent a couple days in hospital and am home now recovering.
    Whata rollercoaster 3 weeks in all!
    For anyone unsure about ectopic, symptoms are different for everyone. I had only one day of cramp then nothing for 2 weeks, then a nother cramp. I had normal blood pressure up until the day it ruptured. In fact I felt healthy and had no bleeding.
    If you suspect something, have any symptoms etc, please be persistent in getting bloods and scans until it is resolved.
    You can still Trying to conceive with one tube.;)
